Pool for the Lego Guys

At get-ready-for-bed-time tonight, Ian opined:

"Daddy, I think once I've gone to the bathroom and washed my hands, I can fill up the pool."

I said, "Pool?"

"Yes. Sink. It's for the Lego guys."

I knew that our bathroom sink gets filled with water on random (or not-so-random nights, it turns out), but I had no idea that there was such a methodology to it. Many nights, if you visit the boys' bathroom in the middle of the night, you'll find the sink wholly unavailable to the non-plastic consumer, since it is filled much of the way to the top with water, with all kinds of plastic entities floating in it, or otherwise sitting at the bottom of the lake.

If it's for the Lego guys, I guess I can't be against it.
